You’re giving police apologia for excessive force. There’s no reason to cause SKULL FRACTURES and BLIND SOMEONE IN ONE EYE for this. If you don’t see that, you’re doing police apologia.

He was armed or something, who knows, boot lickers and apologists are going to do what they do.

So you’re saying it’s fine for an excessive amount of force for someone who is unarmed. Gotcha. LICK BOOT MOAR.

Exclusively at that. If you’re not rich, not white, or not a man, you’re fucked.

It sure as hell matters and has mattered for centuries. If you’re white and wealthy, you have carte blache to do what you want to do essentially. If you’re poor, you’re not as stopped as often as a POC. If you’re not white, like clearly not white, you’re already mistreated in this country. If it didn’t matter we wouldn’t have needed the civil rights movement. We wouldn’t have to worry about them abolishing its legislation either. So yes, it matters a FUCKING lot.

What do you call them pulling the first person who was just talking over a bullhorn exactly? Unless he said he would, in an incrementing way, kill someone like them or an elected official they’re just destroying his first amendment rights.

This case it’s a pepper ball which is to be shot at the chest of someone further away or on the ground if nearby. I wouldn’t be surprised that shitbag froze the balls before hand.

Agreed. I have some mobility issues with age so I’m not exactly a front line fighter type.

Castle doctrine in my state. Unfortunately I don’t live in a blue state Trump hates directly at the moment.

Edit: Also only person in my apartment, so if they’re coming for me, it’s gotten beyond the point of bad. To where it’s better to die there than be taken away and /disappeared/.

Add information about what’s also taught with self defense, get insulted and blocked for it. Fucking cool man…

I was commenting on self defense usage in general. Though all the gung ho idiots seem to forget the first rule, avoid a situation where you’ll need to fight/defend yourself. This is from someone who has been educated with self defense classes, reading, and examples.

We cannot discuss freely what should be in that kit?

That’s part of it, the other part is it’s hard to tell when a person is no longer a threat to you in the heat of the moment. People have been shot before who aren’t high on anything and still able to go for several minutes longer with life ending injuries.

Has been here for a long time, just now they’re being indiscriminate instead of just going after POC.
